Ceremonies have played an important role in Girl Scouts for decades. One way leaders can start the scouting year off is with a Girl Scout Investiture and Rededication ceremony. These ceremonies can be short and simple or they can be longer. It all depends on the dynamics and level of your troop.
A Girl Scout Investiture and Rededication ceremony marks a scouting milestone. Be sure to take lots of pictures so your girls will have years of memories to put in their scrapbooks.
Girl Scout Investiture Ceremonies
At some point in our lives, we have all been “the new kid”. Whether that was at school, on a team, or on the job, we have all entered a place and met a group of people whom we did not know. A Girl Scout Investiture Ceremony welcomes those girls who are new to your troop. This ceremony recognizes them and welcomes them into the sisterhood of your troop.
